This report describes shoulder osteoarthritis due to bone alterations which were confirmed radiographically. We report an 85 year old Japanese female with right shoulder pain. Radiographic findings showed bone signal changes using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and accumulation by bone scintigraphy in the affected area. The screening of other joint (left shoulder) showed no such changes. So, bone alterations may be involved in pathogenesis of shoulder osteoarthritis presenting with pain, which we want to emphasize in this case. |
